Corrections

January 10, 1998

* An article in Friday's front section incorrectly reported that the Senate had spent almost $190 million on investigations since Republicans took over in 1995. In fact, the reported dollar amount represents the total amount of all expenditures for Senate committees over the last three years. The article also said the Senate Appropriations Committee had spent $12.1 million, the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee had spent $11.8 million and the Senate Judiciary Committee had spent $10.7 million on investigations over the last three years. Those figures reflected the total amount each committee spent on all of its operations, not just investigations. The incorrect information came from the Associated Press.

* A headline in Friday's Local section, "Mental health care critical for delegate in '98," was unclear. Del. Mary T. Christian's priority is getting insurers to cover medical needs of disabled infants; she hopes this General Assembly session will be remembered for its mental health reforms.

* A story on the front of Friday's Local section about a lawsuit filed by James City County against a couple and the builder of their home said the homeowners have filed suit against the builder, a county building inspector and the attorney who represented them in the contract for the house. The homeowners dropped the suit against their attorney, Gregory R. Davis, in July. The suit against the building inspector, Bernard M. Farmer Jr., was dismissed in September. The builder's attorney has requested that a trial date be set in Williamsburg-James City County Circuit Court on Monday.
